Gift Exchange!

Hey there everyone! Gliderma has suggested a really cool idea - a gift exchange to help everyone get acquainted! To be a part of it email your full name, user name on this forum (and any other forums you are on as well if you would like) and address to Gliderma@aol.com. Then in this section post a reply with your wish list, include how many gliders you have and how many cages, which diet you use, color preferances for gifts, vendor preferances if you have them, and any other information you feel your gifter needs to know!

MUST SIGN UP BY OCTOBER 1ST AND GIFT MUST BE SENT BY OCTOBER 15TH! - otherwise you may not be considered for the next glider gift exchange

Gliderma is kind of in charge of this project so any questions should be directed to her! I actually have not done this before either so I think it is a really cool idea!

I love gifts, getting & giving so here goes! I do have 16 gliders with 6 ip right now. Yes I am a breeder! I can always use cage sets & toys with this many suggies and do feed HPW. I have lots of toy making supplies, so we are all set there, but I can use almost anything else! I love Kathy's suggie gyms, Karin's sets and Dawns toys just off the top of my head. I am also a fleece-a-holic and have a Joanns nearby. I hope that gives my buddy some good ideas. Get your info to me so we can get this party started!

Well my name is April - I have 5 sugar gliders - and one baby who is spoken for right now - she is just 1 1/2 months old - I am a very small time breeder just two mating pairs - actually one mating pair and one trio - I have 2 girls and 3 boys! I have my babies on the HPW diet

as far as what I would like - almost anything but cage sets - lol I have PLENTY of them - HPW supplies are always needed - cute fabric and fleece actually - ideally I would like some fraggle rock cotton fabric - that would be the ultimate gift! - I would kill to make a cage set that would match my babies names - Mokey, Gobo, Sprocket and Wembly!! - unique toys are always good too- I also am a big fan of the vines those suggie gyms - I have one now but would love more - ha ha - they are so cool!

my best friend and I make and sell cage sets and toys - so we always have plenty of them!

Yay! Can't wait!

April

I'm so excited for this exchange!

Lets see, I have a total of 7 gliders in two cages, one cage has three girls, and the other cage has 1 male 1 female and their 2 babies both females. My suggies are on the BML diet.

Wish List:
Cage sets (no preference with color or designs)
Roomier bonding pouches (big enough for 4 gliders)
Foraging toys
Hanging toys from http://peekaboogliders.tripod.com/
Toy making supplies (fleece, plastic chain, colored shot glasses etc.)
Stealth or Custom Cruiser wheels <-- In my wildest dreams
I love love love Kathy's stuff (www.suggiegym.com)
I would like to try out some Hibiscus Flowers and Eucalyptus.

I will love anything my buddy decides to send us! Come on guys sign up! I can't wait to spoil my buddy and their babies

Come on everybody! You know y'all love to get presents! I am still waiting for your info so I can match ya up with a buddy for the first sugar chat gift exchange!

I have three glider boys in one 30" x 18" x 54" wire cage. I use the BML diet. I like cute, simple designs and prefer no characters on any of their fleece. I like colorful stuff, but do not care for very light colors such as yellow or orange. Any other colors are great! I like toys that are easy to hang/unhang and easy to clean. I have found that I'm much more likely to give them toys that already have clips on them instead of toys that I have to use binder clips for.

Wish list:
- Toys from April/Lisa
- Pouches/cage sets from April/Lisa
- Interesting things for my gliders to eat that are hard to find
- Easy to wash wheel that will fit through the door of my suggie cage (door offers about 9 x 10 inches of space)
- Gift cards to pet stores..? =D


Lol I just wanted to put this out here because I'm being pressured to do it...I'm not sure if I will or will be able to. I haz bills to pay and all of the animals are spoiled enough as it is!

I have three cages.
I don't make toys so my babies love to get forging toys. Colors don't matter because i have cage sets in all sorts of colors.

If you are not sure that you can participate, maybe it would be best for you not to this time. I'm not trying to be mean, but I really don't want to match you up with someone who would be expecting a gift and have you decide you can not send one. That would not be fair.

YAY for gift exchanges I *LOVE* them

I have 9 suggie babies, 3 separate cages (all of them are 4 ft X 3ft X 3ft)
Themes are:
Black and purple (4 suggies in this one- 2 m 2 f)
Purple and Neon Green (2 suggies in this one-1 m 1 f)
Black and Red (3 suggies in this one-2 f 1 m)

I could use:
-cage sets (It's no fun when you make all your own. LOL it's nice to have them from other people once in a while )
-toys! I don't have very many toys at all. My skills in the toy making department are sadly under-developed, so I have to switch the same couple of toys back and forth in the 3 cages.
-toy making supplies
-Eucalyptus
-I have 1 Gazebo from SuggieGym, but would not mind another. Someday, I will have 3. lol
-treats (I usually just stick with plain Yogurt Drops from Exotic Nutrition, and dubias, mealies or waxies)
-A Leu female? HAHAHA I know, I'm dreaming.
-play tent... I've never had one!
I LOVE halloweeny stuff.. Bats, spiders... Halloween is my favorite holiday!!

ok.. lol that is everything I could think of off the top of my head.

I'm so excited!

Well.....if we are throwing suggies in the mix, I'd LOVE a Ring Tail Mosaic! HAHAH! Jk

LOL ooo count me in too!!!

Hahaha! I wouldn't mind a leu either

LOL... I was THIS -> . close to getting one. the lady fell through last minute. At least I hadn't paid yet!

If it's any consolation, I do have 2 sets of twins that are WFB's and 100% leu hets! They are less expensive than buying a leu outright, but you still have the chance to get a leu from thier offspring. I do have mosaic's too, but they are too young yet to breed. Let me know if you are interested and I can give you more info. Unfortunately, I won't be able to "give" them to my buddy for the gift exchange!

I need to start saving my pennies!

That's why we have payment plans! I never would have any of them without making payments! I am open to that, so let me know if you are interested. Better get back on topic though!

I have a 100% leu het pair, but so far no luck. maybe I'll take ya up on that... LOL

I see you have a bearded dragon too! I just got 2 females! What advice can you give me? As far as the joey's I have, there are twin males & twin male & female. Both have a Leu parent with 1 having a WF Dad & the other has a WFB Mom. Let me know if you are interested in either one of them and we can work something out.

BTW isn't today the last day to sign up for the gift exchange?!

Please get me your info my Midnight tomorrow, Oct. 1st to be included in the gift exchange. Think how fun it will be to have a secret pal and get a gift for you & your gliders! Come on, you know you want to! Do it now so you don't forget!

lol you are right chelsea the month just flew by

oh if we are going to be exchanging gliders put me down for a leu as well - or at the very least a white faced female glider - lol

I think it would be funny if we all bought each other leus - how funny would that be - wed all spend the same amount and all get a beloved leu - ha ha

by the way is there like a price range we keep in Gliderma? was just wondering - lol

cant wait - is going to be so much fun! yippee!

Previous gift exchanges that I have participated in keep it around $25. Hope that is ok with everyone? I will make 2 lists of all the participants. 1 list will be cut up into individual names and put in a "hat'. My 3 yr. old grandson will pull out the names & we will go down the list, which is very short, by the way! I will email everyone your buddy info and then you can check their wish list and send them a gift. It doesn't have to be on their list, but that does give you an idea of what they might want or need. Such as HPW supplies, cage sets cuz they don't sew or toy making supplies cuz they like to make their own and so on. I'm excited so come on and send me your info!

The very best advice I can give you for beardies is this:

Go here: bd.org

lol. in a nutshell. I'm a relatively new BD owner myself, and would be able to answer far fewer questions than others on that forum would. Not that I don't know, it's just better to get advice from the ones who know more than I do. lol. (It'd make ME a little nervous to get glider advice from someone who had only had their gliders for 6 months )


ooo.. perhaps. I have to get some extra money before I can make a commitment on a new glider. (My laptop just died, trying to get a new one... I kind of need it! lol. and I refuse to spend my vet fund on a computer!)

you got my email, right? (I didn't get any sort of confirmation >.<) lol

My name is Sandi and I have 6 gliders right now my newest baby (my first mosiac ) will be coming home the first of November. As for what I like I like everything toys, cage sets, climbing things, hangin things and pouches. I would really like those cubes I keep seeing I think those are really neat.
